It actually fits budget since I've had a few words n stated its impossible so budget is now £400, current sales and ryzen 5 3600, b450 tomahawk max, corsair 500w psu, budget ssd and that ram comes up at £380. Hell borrow my old nvidia and peripherals to get a display n use until he can recoup...

Yeah I Googled around but seems state side only, non in UK that I can find. Rams the money saving section now I'm pretty much decided on the sale priced b450 tomahawk max n 3600x combo for him now. I want to try get the best I can squeeze into the budget possible for future proofing without...

Shaving money helps what's the cheap oloy ram your all using, I'm panning to order in the next day or two? I was thinking 3600x since its literally almost the same price on sale at the minute

Yea Yeah tell me about it it seems like an impossible task I've stuck together as there is a great sale on just now in places 3600x or 2700x (3600x is currently same price as 2700x) B450 tomahawk max motherboard 16gig corsair lpx vengeance 3200mhz Corsair 500w psu Borrowing my old gpu...

Appreciate the reply I've put forward a basic build that picks parts from the recommended n gave him a saving target hopefully I'll get it together soon n monitor for potential price drops. Yeah the budget ssd really sped up my old sandy rig that's still plodding along for less than £20

Thanks for that system recommendation, is 3600mhz ram the "sweet spot" for ryzen? I know intel is lower speed and can enable xmp over clock black blah but pass never fiddled with amd yet heard frequency has a bigger effect on the ryzen processor Thanks its getting harder to decide and its not...

Hi guys and girls Looking for a bit of advice for a limited budget build mainly geared towards graphics design/drawing I guess is what you'd call it. My brother has decided he wishes to purchase a hueion 13 Pro drawing tablet but requires a budget rig to run it. He initially looked at a...

Decided to get this as another part of my bit by bit build. But couldn't resit and the case and cooler are now housing my sandybridge system until such times I get the rest:rolleyes::laugh:

If you could good sir:clap:, stick my name in the wizarding hat

Well decided to get a couple of bits for my new undecided and in time build (either a 9700k or 9900k and aorus board probably ) just collecting bit by bit as I go n deals arise Yeah it was very cheap but I like it and 10 years of sun from a window hasn't played well with my phantoms white...

It boils down to i can't afford a full water cooling system from ek or the likes so hence the aio. On that note though what's the liquid cool vortex 240mm "kits" like as entry level? There within my budget

Whilst I appreciate the nocuta and dark rock air coolers are great and outperform some aios (although I thought it was 260/280mm?) it's my first build in 9 years since sandy bridge and I'd just prefer to try an aio this time around. Had a prolimatech megahalem hanging off my board for years so...

Hi folks As title suggests anyone successfully fitted a 360mm aio in the original big tower phantom case? I have Googled and can't find a definitive answer as most posts are out of date with pics missing I won't be modding the case which probably means the 3rd fan will be partially blocked by...

Yeah when it arrives for 400 UK pounds like rumoured I'd think about it, atleast I know I'll still have 400 quid laying around because I highly doubt its that price :laugh: :kookoo:

I'm the exact same just now trying to upgrade from. Sandybridge (anythings an upgrade) but my force of habits and gaming are saying 9700k or 9900k. My curiosity, reading and budgets telling me 3700 or 3900x for a try. Driving me nuts :laugh: :banghead:
